Shades of ‘Mack the Knife’…

the lyrics:
“Oh the shark, babe
Has such teeth, dear
And he shows them
Pearly white
Just a jackknife
Has old Macheath, babe
And he keeps it
Out of sight
You know when that shark bites
With his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows
Start to spread
Fancy gloves, though
Wears ol’ Macheath, babe
So there’s never, never a trace of red
Now, on the side walk, ooh Sunday morning, uh huh
Lies a body just oozing life. EEK!
And someone’s sneaking round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?
There’s a tugboat down by the river, don’t you know
Where a cement bag’s just a drooping on down
Oh that cement is just, it’s there for the weight, dear
Five’ll get ya ten, ol’ Mackie’s back in town”
